you learn a thing or two when you have owned and or repaired every kind of locking or slipping diff.please, go out and buy what you like, the money aint commin to me unfortunately :cry: oh, and my wife owns me! i can see why people in the industry don't come forward too often, get thier arse chewed ...

owned detroit, lockright [ woops, still have one]- don't get me started on those items!
and by being a HUGE fan of boeing aircraft i work for boeing? [ could do, they have a factory in melb!]
or by being a fan of vic rail and building custom n scale rollingstock i work for national rail?
love toyota ...

didn't make my undies warm

Welcome to the pissing contest.

the air locker have 2 viton O-rings that run on one of the bearing spigots, this is where the air is transfered into the carrier to activate the locking mechanism.

An O-ring is not designed to be a radial seal where a shaft turns inside it, this is why I prefer ...

a bigger diff, and a locker to suit that bigger diff should be considered. usually people try go for high horespower, shit gearing, and stock diffs, won't work.

try ngk? bosch and eclin very dirty words....

nor require the amount of spares.

go to the warn website, you will get helpfull info there.

well, i do believe when the pro locker came out all thier selling points were just baggin the air locker.
jac mac's biggest selling point was they used vacuum, so when tjm go to compressed air why is it better? they still have a seal seperating the oil from air.
which o ring are you talking about ...

Whats with the slabs of chequer plater on the sides?

they are spot welded in about a dozen spots each. this way i didn't have to grind back the main body weld to a point were it would start cracking over time.

what size tyres you want to run? 4.5 inch body lift sound scary.

just get another pro locker. that one piece rod used to be a real problem. i have a workmate who used to work for TJM in the actual factory thing and he said steer clear because that shaft was a weak point.

a mate of a mate who is a third cousin of this other mate i have ...

This info come from mate who actually works for a TJM store. BTW he also said they haven't had a TJM locker come back for warrenty work yet.

Cheers Mick.

The Pro locker also uses a one piece cross shaft (better & stronger), whereas the ARB has a three piece design.
The actuating cage cage inside the ARB's hemispere is plastic and cracks with time, they are cheap but require a complete strip down to replace. The Pro Lockers has hardened steel posts ...

Smooth automatic operation
Quiet operation
On and offroad steering is uncompromised

those selling points ARE very debatable! [have had them]

You wont notice that effect (gas pushing down) but nice theory. The rebound from the springs is much faster than the gas cares to expand and the coil will still be pushing out against the shock.

Gas are a bit stiffer than oil/hydraulic and so you get a slightly sportier stiffer ride. Landrover ...

buy a bigger car?

what is the bolt on bearing housing made of?

not bad for the real world.nice pic

WOULD NOT be driving a coil sprung vehicle without shocks! might get away with it on leaves because they are about %75 self dampening, wouldn't try it on coils.
